Tiny study sees if gallium can sneak into brain tumors

NCT ID NCT07515924

First seen Apr 11, 2026 · Last updated May 06, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This early-phase trial will test whether an oral drug called gallium maltolate can reach brain tumor tissue in 8 people with recurrent glioblastoma. Participants take the drug before surgery, and researchers compare gallium levels in their removed tumor tissue to samples from untreated patients. The goal is only to measure drug penetration, not to treat the disease.
